TEAM PREVIEWS
TRINBAGO KNIGHT RIDERS
The Trinbago Knight Riders have looked very strong in CPL T20 so far. The star performer for them has been Sunil Narine, with bat and ball, but players like Ali Khan, Jayden Seales, and Colin Munro have been very good as well. Online Betting Tips
We think perhaps Lendl Simmons at the top of the order could maybe need to be replaced but apart from that the TKR lineup looks well settled. Darren Bravo, Dwayne Bravo, and Kieron Pollard have not really hit their stride and that makes the batting lineup very dangerous.
The slow and low conditions at the Brian Lara Stadium have not been to the liking of most big-hitters. It appears as if Sunil Narine is immune to this as he has reeled off his second consecutive fifty of CPL T20.
Narine has been ready to bide his time against the short ball and then waits to take full-toll of the spinners.
He and Colin Munro are going to be the most dangerous batters for TKR once more but there is plenty of depth in case they get out early.
Ali Khan has been brilliant for TKR during the powerplay overs and the death. If he and Jayden Seales can continue to be effective then the impact of Fawad Ahmed, Sunil Narine, and even Khary Pierre becomes much more.
TKR is not unbeatable but is looking like a cut above the other teams at the moment
BARBADOS TRIDENTS
The Barbados Tridents were caught on the wrong foot by a better prepared team in their previous match. The St. Lucia Zouks worked the head to head’s very well against the Tridents and came away winners.
The Tridents will have to try to do the same thing against the Trinbago Knight Riders.
A look at the Tridents batting suggests that they have some dangerous players to look out for. Johnson Charles may not have got many runs in CPL T20 but he is a proven player and is always dangerous. Kyle Mayers was very impressive in the opening match of the tournament and is going to be one of the young players to watch out for in this edition of the tournament.
Shai Hope struggles in T20 cricket and his place at opening position is a bit dicey. Similarly, Jason Holder may be better coming in after Jonathan Carter rather than before him, although, Holder played very well against the Zouks.
Corey Anderson has looked out of touch and is returning after a long layoff. He seems to be a player trying to find his best form but has no idea how to do that.
The Tridents have a very decent bowling attack led by Rashid Khan. He is going to challenge the TKR batsmen for sure. Hayden Walsh, Jason Holder, Raymon Riefer, and Mitch Santner make this a very good spin bowling lineup that is going to hard to score off. Match Tips Free
TKR VS BT TOSS PREDICTION
The team that wins the toss is going to want to bat second.
PITCH AND CONDITIONS
The weather forecast is not very good for this match. We are almost certainly going to have some delays and maybe a wet outfield. This is going to make conditions a bit difficult for the spinners and favour the faster bowlers.
Getting boundaries is also going to be tougher and so the overall expected total should come down.
Teams batting first will want to get at least 150 batting first.
